Chapter 106: The Carriage

The wind is very cold since it is nighttime and it was perfect for those people who want to feel the night's breeze. However, this is not a breeze that will help you cool down, this is a cold wind blowing due to the fast movement of the carriage we are riding. And this kind of carriage made me want to puke.

"Master, are you sick?" Yuri asked as she rubbed my back.

Currently, I am on the window trying to hold up my puke that seems to be ready to burst out if I am not going to hold it. This is the first time I entered and ride a carriage but this is quite hard for me especially with the movement. It makes me dizzy and the wind makes it worse for my stomach.

"Looks like Kazuma is carsick. This might be the first time he has taken a ride inside a carriage. Unfortunately, I can't help you with that. There is no magic that involves healing your carsickness," Maple said.

"I am sorry Master, this one is my fastest vehicle that can allow us to ride efficiently with everyone inside. But to think Master can't handle this rickety carriage of mine, I will remember this and never do it again," Inari said with a regretful face.

Although I enjoy the carriage ride since the carriage was being pulled by foxes instead of horses, I don't think I can enjoy it with this churning feeling in my stomach. I want to puke...

"Urp..." I want to say that "It's alright" but if I do, I would instead throw up so I decided to just stay quiet. Ugh, my stomach...

"I can help you temporarily stepfather, though it only works for 5 minutes only. Any more than that and the effect will disappear. Will you try it?" Anya looked at me with innocent eyes.

"Is that effective?" Yuri looked at Anya with a puzzled look.

"I have taken it before when I still get sick in flying in the skies. My father taught me of it but my version is a weaker version of his so I can only keep the effect for 5 minutes only."

"That... will be... fine..." I said struggling not to throw up in the middle of speaking.

"Will Master be alright after that?" Inari asked.

"Yes. It is fine. It won't affect anyone, regardless of race. Stepfather will not be harmed by this."

Since I agreed, Anya performed the spell when some demons attacked our carriage.

"Demons!" Yuto who was silent earlier stood up and released his wings.

"Stay put Yuto. Since I have not shown everyone my capabilities, this is my time to show it."

The carsickness disappeared after Anya cast the spell on me and I was just on time to witness what Inari-sama was about to do.

Inari-sama took out some talismans and throw them in the air. However, instead of falling to the ground, it floated in the air and glow in different colors.

"BREAK!"

As soon as she shouted break, the talismans immediately exploded to flames in their corresponding colors. I didn't see any reaction after that so I tried looking outside the carriage and saw the demons that were currently attacking us were now burning and rolling in the ground while some who refuse to retreat and still clings on the carriage even if their bodies are burning were all reduced to ashes.

Inari just kept on throwing the talismans over and over and does the same things over and over. All enemies, whether they are big or small demons, even demonic beasts were all burned to flames. Soon, the attack stopped and the ride went smoothly again.

"That was simple magic and yet it is so effective," Maple muttered as she witnessed everything.

"Anyways, I didn't unleash my full power yet because the enemies are weaker than me and it might be overkill if I unleash my full power at them. It won't be challenging for me if that was the case."

"As expected of a deity, even us succubus and incubus can't compare to your power!" Yuto said in amazement.

"Brother, you know we can compete with her in raw power right? We just need training so that we can be as powerful as her and can compete with her in being strong despite using "normal" magic," Yuri interjected.

"Indeed. Your sister is right Yuto. I won't be this strong if I didn't undergo training. If I haven't gone to the pilgrimage training for hundreds of years then I won't be able to pull things like this."

"H-hundred's of years?!" the siblings were stunned.

I am not surprised by what she said. Gods and deities like Inari can almost live forever as long as they are worshipped by people or there are people who still remember them. A god will only die if they are forgotten by the masses causing the loss of faith that they use as their sustenance which will result in their disappearance in the world which is equal to death to humans.

After 3 minutes of travel inside the carriage, I can feel the strong fluctuations of demon energy not too far from our location.

"We should stop here. Going in further in the carriage will only result in us getting noticed quicker by enemies. The demons are intelligent beings and I don't think they won't be bothering us since we are inside the carriage. It only makes us a more easy target to them since we are inside the carriage which they can easily gank when the opportunity arises."

"Kazuma has a point. In terms of defeating enemies, the ones in the carriage are the most vulnerable in surprise attacks, so it would be best to get on foot this time," Maple agrees to my suggestion.

"Alright then," Inari nodded before she faces the front of the carriage and clapped 5 times. Slowly, the carriage stopped. I sighed in relief because even if the 5 minute limit of the carsickness medicine is up, I won't be throwing up anymore.

After every one of us got off the carriage, Inari snapped her fingers, and the carriage with some foxes pulling it disappeared in thin air. As soon as the carriage disappeared, I activated my mana scan and grinned on what I saw. The amount of demonic beings surrounding us is just overwhelming.

"Interesting! It looks like we will be starting to perform a bloodbath here! Draw your weapons and prepare your spells! We will be entering a fight!" I said and snapped my fingers producing flames in both of my hands.

"We are surrounded?!" Maple pulled out her dagger and looked around despite that she can't see the enemies hidden in the darkness. It didn't take too long when the eyes of the demons started to glow in the darkness.

"Here they come! Kill them all!"
